Winter wonderlands - winter breaks in Iceland, Norway and Lapland

Winter wonderlands (5084)

Book a trip to a magical winter wonderland for guaranteed snow this winter. From the mesmerising natural spectacle of the Northern Lights to sledge rides pulled by Donner and Blitzen to Santa’s grotto, a holiday to a fairy-tale winter wonderland will be enough to awaken the child in you.

Take an exhilarating ride on a snowmobile across the seemingly endless pure, white plains. Or wrap up warm and let the husky sledge pull you along. And a horse drawn carriage ride under a starry sky will be sure to add a bit of romance to your trip.
